{"product_id":"philosophical-perspectives-on-infinity-graham-oppy-9780521860673","title":"Philosophical Perspectives on Infinity","description":"This book is an exploration of philosophical questions about infinity. Graham Oppy examines how the infinite lurks everywhere, both in science and in our ordinary thoughts about the world. He also analyses the many puzzles and paradoxes that follow in the train of the infinite. Even simple notions, such as counting, adding and maximising present serious difficulties. Other topics examined include the nature of space and time, infinities in physical science, infinities in theories of probability and decision, the nature of part\/whole relations, mathematical theories of the infinite, and infinite regression and principles of sufficient reason.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Graham Oppy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521860679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521860673\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.18h x 6.34w x 1.11d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 9","brand":"Graham Oppy","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43920078700799,"sku":"9780521860673","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3397eef3-be33-4725-9768-2ef42b1c9549.jpg?v=1680813481","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/philosophical-perspectives-on-infinity-graham-oppy-9780521860673","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
